I’ve been following up with the students from Streamer U like I said I would
I noticed a correlation in decreasing viewership and decreasing hours streamed
This is likely because some are discouraged, and it’s hard to be motivated when the numbers aren’t good
So, the point of saying everyone fell off is that this is not a unique or terrible experience. It was an inevitability
My viewership is down
Kai’s viewership is down
Viewership is not a controlled variable so it’s better to focus on what is controlled. Making cool shit and finding joy what you do
